Guest Comments

“Stayed at the Holiday Inn St Paul Downtown Oct 1 & Oct 2. I flew in for a ‘Prairie Home Companion’ show on Sat Evening Oct 2. My flight arrived at MSP at 8:30am and I was at the hotel by 9:15am. I knew all the area hotels were booked solid due to the Twin-City marathon. I had reservations but check-in was not until 4pm. To my surprise and delight they had my room ready and I was able to check in. This allowed me to explore St Paul with no worries about my luggage or time.“
